The austral negrito or Patagonian negrito (Lessonia rufa) is a species of bird in the family Tyrannidae. It breeds in Argentina and Chile, migrating north as far as Bolivia, southern Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay. It is a vagrant to the Falkland Islands and the South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands territory. It has also been seen in the South Shetland Islands.[2] Its natural habitats are freshwater lakes and saline marshes. It is primarily insectivorous[3] but can eat algae. [2] It hunts in grassland environments with short grass.[4] It perches and moves throughout foliage such as shrubs in order to find prey. [3]
